Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the menu for the coming days at Jaconé.
Right off the bat, there's a bit of a wait. The first few days are looking pretty average, with a mix of poor conditions and small, messy swell. The wind isn't doing us any favors either, mostly cross-onshore or onshore. The good news is that from around the middle of next week, things start to look a whole lot cleaner.
The real standout window is Wednesday the 15th through Friday the 17th. The swell is solid, around 7ft down to 5ft, coming from the SSE or SE, and it's a long-period groundswell (11 to 12 seconds) packing a serious punch of energy. This is going to mean proper waves with plenty of push. The best of the best is going to be Wednesday morning, July 15th, and Thursday morning, July 16th. We've got clear skies and a gentle offshore breeze from the NE. That's the kind of wind that grooms the faces, making for some really clean, rippable lines. The water temperature is sitting at 73°, which is pretty normal for this time of year, so no surprises there.
The swell is over 7ft on those days, so this is for the experienced crew. It's a consistent break, so you'll get plenty of waves, but the sets will be longer between them with that groundswell period. The crowd factor is listed as "sometimes", so you might have a few others out, but it shouldn't be a zoo.
After that, the swell drops off a bit but stays fun through the weekend and into the next week, with a mix of ENE and E swells. The wind stays light and cross-offshore or offshore, so conditions will remain clean. There's a small window around the 22nd with a 2ft S swell and a 14-second period, which is a very long period, but the size is tiny. It's worth a look if you're desperate for a glide, but it's not a highlight.
The second week is a bit of a mixed bag. There's a period from the 22nd to the 24th where the wind turns onshore again, making things messy. Then it cleans up for the 25th, but the swell is small. Overall, the first week is where the real quality is.
Rusty.

Information about the Jaconé Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Jaconé provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Jaconé can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Jaconé surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Jaconé) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Jaconé may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
Jacone is 14 km (9 miles) from the city of Saquarema. If you plan a holiday in Rio de Janeiro, look for hotels and other accommodation in Saquarema. Saquarema has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
